Photosynthetic and Stomatal Responses of the Grey Mangrove, Avicennia marina, to Transient Salinity Conditions.
Measurements of gas exchange characteristics were made on intact, attached leaves of hydroponically grown seedlings of Avicennia marina (Forstk.) Vierh. var australasica (Walp.) Moldenke as the NaCl concentration of the culture solution was varied by step changes of 50 millimolar NaCl every 2nd day from 50 to 500 to 50 millimolar NaCl. The CO(2) assimilation rate, stomatal conductance, intercel...
متن کاملInverse relationship between salinity and n-alkane dD values in the mangrove Avicennia marina
Hydrogen isotope ratios in lipids derived frommangroves have the potential to be used for paleohydrologic reconstructions and could serve as a much needed tool for establishing past climate variability in the tropics. We assessed the effect of salinity on the apparent fractionation factor, aa, between mangrove derived n-alkanes and their source water for Avicennia marina (gray mangrove) specime...
متن کاملOxygen microgradients in the rhizosphere of the mangrove Avicennia marina
Oxygen concentration was measured in aerial roots (pneumatophores), horizontal cable roots and surrounding sediment of the tree Avicennia marina (Forsk.) Vierh. in a mangrove swamp at Ao Nam Bor, on the southeast coast of Phuket Island, Thailand. The O2 measurements were made in the field with a polarographlc oxygen minielectrode. The O2 concentration inside pneurnatophores was 63 to 88 % of ai...
متن کاملComparative Study of the Disjunct Zonation Pattern of the Grey Mangrove Avicennia Marina (forsk.) Vierh. in Gazi Bay (kenya)
The disjunct zonation pattern of Avicennia marina (Forsk.) Vierh., frequently observed along the Kenyan coast as a landward and a seaward zone, has been studied on a morphological level and complemented with preliminary genetic data. The objective was to describe the two zones in-depth in order to provide a background ecological setting that may be used in explanations on the emergence of such ...
متن کاملBiosynthesis of Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles from the Mangrove (Avicennia marina) and Investigation of its Antibacterial Activity
Background and purpose: Development of biocompatible and nontoxic methods for synthesis of nanoparticles is important in bio-nanotechnology. This study aimed at biosynthesis of titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) using leaf of the native mangrove (Avicennia marina) and investigating its antibacterial activity. Materials and methods: Effect of four different solutions composed of dry extr...
